The Boston Celtics stormed into Fiserv Forum on Sunday and took Game 1 of their second-round series against Milwaukee Bucks in convincing fashion.

Not many were expecting Game 1 would result in a 22-point stomping of the Bucks, including ex-Celtic Paul Pierce. After originally claiming Milwaukee was capable of winning an NBA championship this year, Pierce apparently changed his mind — and fast.

In fact, “The Truth” appeared fairly convinced on ESPN’s postgame coverage that his former team has the second round pretty much wrapped up.
